International Defender of Murghas
The presence of deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu sparked widespread fear and rumors among the local public about the emergence of Bird Flu outbreak in Pakistan. Murghas all over the country came under suspicion and scrutiny by the public. Every head turned around when an innocent murgha dared to step out on the streets of Pakistan. Many murghas complained about the biased attitude of Pakistani people towards the entire murgha population due to the acts of few misguided murghas. But the public, widely engrossed into the media's biased coverage of the Bird Flu epidemic, did not pay any attention to the murghas and their supporters. Betrayal and depression settled in the murgha community as they were rejected by their own people. The situation took a deadly turn when the government officials mass-slaughtered around 23,000 chickens whose only fault was their presence around the suspected murghas involved in Bird Flu case.
Dismayed by the local attitudes, the murghas sent their high-ranking poultry farmers and lobbyists all the way to the Federal Information Minister, Sheikh Rashid Ahmed. On his insistence, the government conducted a sample testing of all the murghas with the help of World Health Organization (WHO) and managed to refute the rumors of Bird Flu outbreak in Pakistani murgha population.
Moreover, in a public show of support for the murghas, Sheikh Rashid Ahmed and other government officials got together and showed their solidarity with the Pakistani Murghas and declared that their consumption is perfectly safe. Sheikh Rashid Ahmed, willfully called upon the public to "display understanding towards chicken and ignore the rumors circulating in the media", while ensuring he maintained his lead over other officials in the hotly contested chicken eating competition. For his exemplary support towards the murghas, Sheikh Rashid Ahmed was later declared the "INTERNATIONAL DEFENDER OF MURGHAS" and received an All-you-can-eat coupon from the KFC employees union.
